Building climate resilience in the MENA region: a feminist political ecology of agroecology and neglected and underutilized crop species
This study explores the factors associated with the cultivation of neglected and underutilized crop species (NUS) and agroecology adoption (crop rotation with legumes) amid the climate crisis in rural Lebanon and Morocco. A mixed-methods...

Harnessing the plant‑associated microbiome: Rhizosphere and endophyte plant growth‑promoting bacteria (PGPB) to mitigate salt stress in the Egyptian wheat
Salt stress poses a significant threat to wheat productivity, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions such as Egypt, where soil salinity severely limits crop yield and long-term agricultural sustainability. With increasing recognition of the...
Direct seeding, residue management, and mungbean integration for sustainable intensification of irrigated rice systems in the derived savannah of West Africa
Identification of heat tolerant lentil genotypes through stress tolerance indices
With climate change projections indicating an increase in the frequency of extreme heat events and irregular rainfall patterns globally, the threat to global food security looms large. Terminal heat stress, which occurs during the critical...
Jasmonic acid negatively regulates wheat grain filling by affecting assimilate transport and starch biosynthesis
Grain filling is a pivotal determinant of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield, relying on the efficient coordination of source–sink dynamics and assimilate partitioning. Jasmonic acid (JA) is widely involved in plant growth and development, and...
